Marius, You can think of GCMC as a high level gcode generator. It takes a lot of the drudgery out of writing gcode by hand. Here's a very simple example: Let's say you are making a tooling plate, and you want to drill a bunch of holes on a 0.5 inch grid. Let's say your grid covers an area of 10

Maruis, My last post was altered by the forum (lines were wrapped). This made my example GCMC program look more complicated than it actually is. So here it is again without the comments: for( x = 0; x = 10; x += 0.5 ) { for ( y = 0; y = 4; y += 0.5 ) {

The way I have been using GCMC is to not use any unit specifiers after numbers. This way, all I have to do is make sure I include G20 (program in inches) at the top, and everything is treated as inches, since GCMC will not do any conversions when no explicit units are specified (am I correct,

2013-11-16 Thread Tony Zampini
To clarify my previous email, I use the literal statement to include the G20. I don't use the -i switch. So GCMC thinks its working in mm, and by not using any explicit unit specifiers, no conversions are done. Then when I run the gcode, all values are treated as inches. Tony -Original
